Maybe that is a better explanation. All I know is he closed up on the penultimate lap and then gave up a gap again racing to the flag. I was only watching the live timing, so I don't really know what happened. He was close enough to win and then didn't.

yeah, he stuck in nose in on the entry to the first corner, saw it wasn't going to work, and went wide avoiding a crash. Couldn't make up the gap in the rest of the final lap.
